It is stated in the Baltimore American, on the authority of Major Heath, one of the passengers, that one of the Latrars saved is a lad of twelve or fourteen years of age. and that he has since gone stark mad front anxiety and suffering, is ith 11 hope of recovery. Among the other incidents of this appalling disaster, the affecting one is mentioned that the Rev. Dr. \Want and wife, aft , •r a most fervent prayer. clasped their chid in a mutual embrace, and in a few minutes the three sunk tigether re signedly into the waves of death. No baggage of any kind was saved. All the parengers had money. which was in their trunks, and it is estima.e.i that at least 150,000 dollars in bank notes and specie have been lost, and upwards of 10,000 dollars in watches and jewellery. We annex all the intelligence fro:a cenntemuorarnes on this distreising affair which has reached us, and will only add that or, 13 more persons mentioned as saved in the letter from Norfolk to Mr. Coffee, of Philadelphia, we learn the nau e of six are G.

June 20, 1838—Eight o'Clock. A.M —We are truly gr titled to state that 30 of the Pulaski's passengers were picked up yesterday morning, about nine o'clock, 15 or 20 miles north of the New Inlet, by the schooner Henry Gamer dun, on her pas-age from Philadelphia to Wilmington, and were landed at our wharf about seven o'clock of the same day. Their sufferings are more readily imagined than describes. Vessels are now cruising along the coast, with the hope of rescuing others of these unfortunate beings from a watery grave. We may lament this dreadful catastrophe, and many will long remember with grief the friends they have lost ; but will it ensure caution, will it create hesitation, prudence, reflection, lierealwr ? We fear not. We are riot a thinking people. We see re- , d read accounts of these dreadful disasters almost daily. We see Recounts of steam-heats foundering at sea, on tire, with b 'Hera burst—all kinds of disasters, yet we ate') en ' board with a light and confident hcart, looking only to th e future, r , gaidless of the pae. Le,gislethn can do nothing. People must think for themselves—they must look out for themselves. Stearn navigation in England, in the British Channel, in the Irish sea, in the Bay or likeay, in the Medi terranean. is aecomp mien as ith few, if any accidetnts ; and why? Because steam-ships, not steam-boats are used. A strip is built after thin usu,l mode, much, stronger, however, than other vessels, her boilers and machinery are constructed with the greatest caution and circumspection ; not an ounce of faulty iron or steel is used—no flaws—no rejected article—all is faithful, spiny', to be depended upon, arid completed under the most cautious inspection. In a ship thus constructed, and with careful engineers, no danger should be apprehended. We must perceive at once, that it is impossible .with any safety, in heavy weather, to navigate a vessel between this and Charleston, drawing only seven or eight feet water ; a vessel nearly 200 feet in length with a moderate breadth of beam only. The natural consequence is that such a boat will en deavour t keep near the rand to make a harbour in case of ,a heavy gale, arid when that gale comes from the S. E., the danger of running ashore is imminent, and in a frightful sea such a boat canna live; and in the attempt to keep up the steam, the boat running gunwales under, the water in the boilers is thrown on one side, leaving the other side dry and exposed to the action of the fire, and explosion takes place, as was, no doubt; the case with the unfortunate Pulaski, and she goes down.

Investigations have been made, some of the individuals inculpated have been arrested, and prosecutions arc in progress, the result of which cannot be doubtful. The excited state of public feeling on the borders of Canada, on both sides of the line, has occasioned the most painful anxiety to this government. Every effort has been and will be made to prevent the success of the design apparently formed, and in the course of execution, by Canadians who have found a refuge within our territory, aided by a few reckless per sons of our own country, to involve the na.iou in a war with a neighbouring and friendly power.

No reasonable doubt can now exist, that a scheme is already on foot in the Colonies for the pur pose of reducing the nominal freemen to the condition of serfs, and of establishing over them a severe magisterial despotism. These objects are pronosed to be effected through the agency of vagrancy and emigratiorA laws, intended to circumscribe the market fur free labour ; prohibitory enactments against the possession or vending of articles of ordinary produce and trade, intended to confine the Negroes to a course of agricultural servitude ; contract laws. ii t mded to (rive undue advantag e to tine e masters, both i n respect t.) work and ' wages, and various modes of new apprentice ship—of the Hill Coolies. for :instance, the liberated Africans, and young children--the effect of which will be to perpetuate many of tto evils of the present system; while severe police and other enactments are designed to place the labouring population still more at the mercy of local magistrates and territorial proprietors. 2.(1. That this Committee, considering the complicated anti in veterate character of the evils to be counteracted, and duly appre ciating the solemn guarantee of the Imperial Parliament for the entire and unqualified freedom of the Negroes at the expiration of their apprenticeship, feel, that the same authority which enacted, can alone effectually enforce, and secure to the persons un doubtedly entitled to them, the permanent possession and enjoy ment of these inestimable rights and privileges. 3d. That in the opinion, of this Committee, these ; great an,' paramour object; c n be certainly and satisfactorily accomplished by the anpo'i.t i elt only of a competent and impartial tribunal in this country, with a view to the immediate inspection of all laws troposed to be passed as accompaniments to the Abolition of Negro Apprenticeship, the complete revision of all colonial laws affecting the constitutional rights and. privileges of the coloured classes, and the final, establishment of such just and equal nrinci - plea of government as shall be authoritative and binding on all future colonial legislation.

This Company has been formed for the purpose of introducin- , the man u f ac t ur e of earthenware and china to the banks of the Thames. The demand for this beautiful and useful manufacture has hitherto been almost entirely supplied by the Potteries in Staffordshire, a locality which burdens it with an enhanced price, from its diStance from the raw materials, and from the great expense of sending the ware to its most valuable market in the metropolis. Notwithstanding these serious disadvantages the consumption has • ' GEORGE INN, DIGBETII, BIRMINGHAM.

The exports have men in declared value from 437,81 W. in 1827, to 8:37,774/. in 1836. The present Company, by having a cheaper access to the raw materials, and by other facilities which the vicinity of London presents, will be enabled to supply every description of pottery at less expense, and thereby largely to increase the consumption of this essential article of domestic ornament and convenience. The chief ingredients employed in the composition of pottery are clay and flint. The first is obtained from Dorsetshire, Devonshire, an,i Cornwall, whence it is shipped to Liverpool, and after an in land navigation of nearly fifty miles, by the Bridgewater and Grand Trunk Canals, it reaches the Potteries. The saving in the transit of Clay will be censiderable.t • The carriage of ihe ware from the Potteries to London is sixty shillings per ton, which will be entirely saved, as well as the large deduction invariably made for breakage. Other materials, such as cullet, zaffers, cobalt, dry white lead, litharge, &c., are purchased in London. The cheapness of coal in Staffordshire is the only apparent ad vantage which the Potteries possess over metropolitan competition ; but the sources of profit above stated will amply compensate for the elifference in the price of this article. The above calculations of profit have been tested by practical mr.erience, and confirmed by personal inquiries in Staffordshire.. Thi s undertaking is, therefore, confidently recommended to the public as a highly profitable investment of capital, and as the means of creating a new and valuable seat for a branch of industry which presents a beautiful union of science and art.

On Thursday Morning, the 11th inst., the steamer Pulaski left Charlc,tun fur Baltimore, with 150 passengers, of whom about 50 were ladies. At about 11 o'clock on the same night, wl:ile off the North Carolina coast—say 30 miles from land —weather moderate ai.d night dark, the starboard boiler exploded, and the vessel was lint, with nearly all the pas gingers and crew. . ( From the New York Inquirer, of June 95. Four of the passengers saved from this unfortunate vessel reached the city yestcrda7. From one of them, Mr. William Robertson, of Savannah, we have gathered some further de tails of the unfortunate event, and are able to correct some of the statements concerning it which have found their way .into print. At the time of the explosion Captain Dubois was a.leep on a sofa in the wheel-house, in which were with him Captain Pearson and taco other persons. They were blown into the 90 ,and Captain Duboi s was d rowne d. .1 After the explosirM it seems the vessel par•ed in the middle, chain cables, some hundred t o ns o f c oa l, an d every. thing about it, sliding down into the sea, th e promenade deck engine, chain forward deck remaining above the water afloat.

Unfortunatel y , however, it capsi ze d, and they were all p reci p itated into the sea ; th ose on l y regaining the wreck who arc a mon g the list of saved. Th ose on the forward desk, originally not necessary to ht4'criin secure On Friday, about t we l ve o'clock, while upon the ocean, two sai ls were seen, one in a n ort h .- a A e rly direction , and the other in a south-westerly di rect i o n , about five or si x miles distant. On Saturday morning e a rly, sea a another stn ill portion of the wreck was discovered, about five miles distant, with a small sail and a flag flying ; this remnant made a • successful attempt to reach those upon the bow, whom they• :tied about noon. They were five males; th e y attac h e d :tied immediately to their thousdtes fellow-sufferers upon the bow, whose number they swelled to 23. The 23 then proceeded to erect a jury -mast, upon which a square sail was hoisted—the wind c on ti nu i ng to bl ow from t h e s. E. which qu irter it had been ever since the wreck) they were blown towards land, which became visible about font . o'clock, P. M. At sunset quite a strip of land was seen, and trees discevered. The night was passed without any material change, and on Sunday morning, upon the occasional hiring of fog, land was quite apparent, about three or four miles off, which they continued to approach until they got within half a mile. The wind, which bad been gradually corning round, settled down to N.E. about eleven, which blew the wreck along the coast, about the same distance from land, during the day. The wind gradually increased in violence, and the rain poured down during the whole of Sun day, until fi ve o ' clock, when it became calm, and the rain ceased. On that night the wind came out from the N. W. On Monday it was clear, and quite calm. At twelve that day the wind blew a light breeze from the S. W. About four o'clock four vessels passed within three miles, steeering east. On Tuesday morning about sunrise the scheoner Henr y Camerdon, Capt. Davis, was seen about five miles off, iu an easterly direction. She continued to near until within three miles, when the exhausted sufferers were discovered. She then immediately squared sails, and bore down to the wreck, which she spoke about half-past eight o'clock ". M. She then passed by, and anchored within a short distant.., Cadt. Davis lowered his boats immediately and succeeded in transferring the whole of the sufferers to his vessel, where every proper comfort at his command was .humanely furnhhed to these unfortunate beings. They gave information to the Captain of their unfortunate fellow-voya ges on the promenade deck, and, after cruising about a shunt time, he fell in with this part of the wreck also. on which remained, however, but Mrs. N. Smith and Mi-s K. Lamar, Charles Lamas, two gentlemen, nd two negro Women, ict an exhausted and worn-out condition. Ten huh died from exhaustion, and six had left for the shore in one of the boats which had they picked up, which they reached in sect). It were needless to attempt a description of the excessive suf fering endured 'oy those on the pieces of wreck. Tilcugh f our days on t h em they felt no hunger, but cxperienc , d the want of water most intensely. It rained all day on Sunday, but tl , e ) were able to catch no rain they could drink, except a little in their heads, a piece of sail which they had, and their clothes. being so saturated with salt water that the rain they caught with them could not be swallowed. Mr. Joseph Auze, for merly of Savannah, was clinging to the mainmast, when fell and killed him. Judge Rochester is the individual men tioned in the former accounts as " an old iientleman from FURTHER PARTICULARS OF THE BURNING OF THE WASH INGTON ON LAKE ERIE —The boat could have been run on share, it is thought, had not the engine unfartureve ly stopped a short time to pick up the yawl. The Washington left Cleveland June Ilth, a t eight a.m., and at two aim. on Sa turday reached thlter 'Creek, where she was burnt—thirty two miles from Bufido. It is difficult to picture the scene of horror when the passengers were waked from their slumbers, in the midst of flames. Numbers precipitated themselves into the Lake, and in shrieks of despair, sunk to rise no more ; s"me clung to boards, &c., and thug got ashore. The Sinai boat took off tu coy-five souls. It is thought forty in nil perished. Many remaining on board, it is believed, were burnt to death—some most hoi:ritly burnt plunged into the water, and were thus drowned, suffering a double death, A Mr. Shadds is the only survivor of seven of his family. Mr. Michael Parker lost hiS wife, parents, sister and her child. A poor Englishman and two of his children were drownod. Alse, a newly married couple who jumped overboard, and sunk in each others arms.' Most of the crew were sinved, also a e Captain. One hundred Life Preservers, says the 131ffalo nean, would have saved all on board. Several of the passel:. germ died, it is helieved, of convulsions from terror. The Rochester Democrat has the following: —" In addition to the foregoing, we learn by a gentleman who barely escaped with his life, that one lady who lost her husband and two chit, dren was picked up alive, although, by holding on to the boat the fingers of both her hands were burned off, and her face shockingly burned also. It was supposed she could not live. LOSS OF THE STEAMER MUSCOGER,--The steamer liins coqee, of Columbus, Captain H. W. Van Vechten, late in the service of the United States, was wrecked in a Bale of wind and went down, about 40 miles to the northward of Cape Florida, on the 234 ult. On her passage from Indian River to Apalachicola, she came to in fair weather, for the purpose of cleaning out her boilers. This, we believe, is a usual pre caution with steamers at sea, and deemed indispensable. '['hey were found, on examination, to have been burnt, and the engineer went about the repair, Before he had completed the repair a germ arose very suddenly, which fora while it w-s hoped she would be enabled to ride out, by keeping her head to windward. But the wind continuing to increase, on the second day her cabins were cut away. During the night of the second day the wind increased to a gale, and three cf the hands were swept off by the sea, which made a clean breath over her decks. The boat also commenced leaking Lally, and all the hands were kept at the pumps. For a while it was hoped by these means she might be kept afloat. But on the third day, the wind still freshening, the leak increased, aed she filled rapidly, that it was with difficulty the hands emelt' take to the boats tefore she went down. Two small boats were brought elonsi le, and the Captain, together with one of the owners of the steamer, who was on board, and the crew, 19 persons in all, leapt in ; but before they could all leave the steamer, he boiler deck was level with the water, She went down immediately. The mate, Mr. Richardson, in effecting his escape from the steamer, owing to a sudden lurch, fell me tier the boiler deck, anti his shoulder was badly fractured. lie was rescued, however, by the timely exertions of Captain Van Vechten, and placed - in one of the small beats. Thus exposed, without water or p.ocisiofis, on a coast in fested with hostile savages, they had nothing better to propose than to make fur the nearest white settlement. Fortunate:y the storm abated, and a breeze sp-inging up fro m th e west ward, they struck off f o r Key West. After being nut four days, they were picked up by the steamer Girap, and lauded in Key West ; at which place they chartered a sellout r, fled arrived at this ',mein safety. The Mustoyee was owned in Columbus, Geo, and was not injured.—Apalachiede Gazette, June 7. FCK AND Loss OF Liee..—Capt a i n J o h n H.

This pl ace was v i sited this morning mith a flood which, for violenc,, aid destruction of property, far exceeds any ever witnessed in this part of the country. It comtne.iced raining last night about eleven o'clock, and continued to pour an uninterrupted torrent until about 4, when the waters of Juniata were found to be rising with feu. ful rapidity. The arches of the viaduct were soon found in sufficient to allow the passage of the flood, and the whole of the Claysport was soon under water, the turnpike presenting a continued sheet of water, with the call-road for its bank, for half a mile, The water coilinucd to rise until it was four or five feet deep in the lower ststr; - . , 5, and the inhabitants were compelled to seek safety hp-stairs, Mr. Barrask ; - wife, and two children cud servant girl, left ther house attempted to escape.

In the House of Representatives, Mr. Adams, who as every me thought, had spun out hig long yarn on the Texas report, took the floor, and began his speech over again. He accused the House, the Speaker, and the Committees, of treating me morials disrespectfully, and, as an instance of it, he mentioned that the Mese, at the last session, refused to receive a peti tion from slaves. The Speaker interposed and pronounced Mr. A.'s rep - larks irrelevant to the question, and out of order. Air. Adams insisted that he was in order, and that the Chair teas out of order. .

ABOLITION OF SLAVERY IN JANIAICA.—We have received by the John IV. Cater, Captain Crane, our files of Kingston p tpers to the 6th of June. The Legislature had been convened to take into consideration the state of the island, under the laws of apprenticeship for the labouring population. The Governor in his address to the Assembly recommends the early and equal abolition of apprentices of all classes, in the confi dence that the apprentices will be found worthy of freedom, and that it will add as a double blessing by securing also the future irteresta of the planters. He distinctly informed the Assembly that her Majesty's Ministers would not entertain any question of further compensation ; pronounces it " physically impossible to maintain the apprenticeship nil any hope of successful agriculture ;" and thus concludes : " Jamaica is in your hands—she requires repose by the re moval of a law which has equally tormented the labourer and disappointed the planter. " A law by which man still constrains man in unnatural ser vi.ude. This is her first exigency. For her future welfare she appeals to your wisdom to Legislate in the spirit of tho times, with liberality and benevolence towards all classes." AMERICAN IMPORTS AND EXPORTS.—The imports of the United States for the year exding 30th September, 1837, amounted to 140,959,217 dollars, of which 122,17 7,) dollars imported in American vessels.

C., which goes far towards corroborating the statements given in the annexed article from the Hamilton Express, It gives a melancholy picture of the state of affairs in the Upper Province '• Emigration from this Province to the United States still continues, notwithstanding the immense numbers who have already left ; but it has elian7.ed its character, end now in stead of being composed of men of strong poli•ical feelings, embraces the more cautious and industrious classes-.-Old coun • trymen as well as natives. Military clangour keeps one por tion of the people from brooding over the general depression. while a morbid melancholy seems to have seized others, who are apathetic as to the consequences of passing events, mid look upcin emigration as a pancea for all their ills. To such an extent has emigration been carried on, that in same parts of the London District, we have credibly been in formed, there are not males enough left to gather a tithe of the crops. Some farms have sacrificed their homesteads for a t• ilk, whilst others have actually abandoned them. But this is not all. The spirit of chastise is extending like an epidemic, and several parties from the country are now tra versing the western states, looking for locations to provide fur an extensive emigration. Something should be done to stop this general depopulation of the country and give hope to the people; what ought to be we leave to the wisdom of Lord Deehatn, merely observing, that from a very wide inquiry, we are led to believe that ;t general amnesty for political offences (with certain excepted) would b:ing back many valuable sub jects, retard the departure of others, and restore confidence among the ina,s of the people. _ . INQUEST ON TUE TWENTY-SIX CHILDEN DIiOWNEd AT SILKSTONE.—The deaths of the unfortunate children were eau:a:it in tha following melancholy manner. The whole of them, amountinz to twenty-931d iti numbe r, i n conseque n ee of the alarm and confusion, we n t up the fbot-ral or day.hole of the pit, whereas, had the" remained in the ph-bottout, they would'undoubtedly have been all saved, as the watet did not reach the bottom of the pit. When the children had passed through a dmr, a little more than half-way up the day-hole, they were met by the watts, which, having previously broken dow. a wall in the day.hule, that had dammed it up, went with redoubled ((nee, and the children were driven hat k against the door and there Browne t, with the exception of two. Those two escaped in the most providential and miraculous manner, by being washed into two sits its the side of the day hole, where they remained until the stream of water had pas4ed. The children, on being taken out of th7' day hole, were immetbately conveyed to the residences of their difiltrent parents. The inspection of the bodies, therefore, by the coroner and jury, wars a work cf no small difficulty and labour; and as the g,eater tart of the jury were on foot, the inspection occupied from five o'clock, the time of c.ssembling of the jury, until considerably atter eight. After going to the houses of the entire number drowned, time jury went to the Red Lion, at silkstomme, where the inquest sat, and after a Midi' coahnitatioN, returned a verdict of Accidental death."—SlaSiela Mercury. 'ROLLS' COURT, FIIIDAY.—Lord Langdale gave judgment in the case of " T a rl e t on v . B arnes, " w hi c h, he observed, cattle before the Court upon a plea, alleging that in March, 1832, the plaintifl' Wed a bill against him in the Court of Exchequer respecting the same matter, and th a t u p on b e i ng serve d w i t h process, '.e on the lathof April, 1835, appeared an d p u t i n a Vea, which was a! owed, but that the suit was nut di sm i sse d ; an d was s till p en ding. The question ra i sed was, whether the all:mane,: of the pica in the Court of Exchequer (which was referred to in the present plea) determined the suit, and operated as sr, dismissal or the bill. He had inquired into the pract.ce of the Court of Exchequer, and with sums variation in respect of costs, it was subs' A n, tially similar to the practice in this Court in similar ett,;(l. On the a low_ once of such a plea in the Court of Exchequer, the defendant oh rained :;04, costs but the elfe,:t was not to dismiss the bill and put at, e n d to th e suit, If the case was such that the Meet of the plea cou'd not be avidded by the amendment of the bill, the allowance of the plea would be an effectual bar to ally further prvseranion of the suit, btdt the hill was nut consequently dismissed. He must allow the plea, and, also the costs of the suit. THE MAILS.—The London Mail diti not reach Exeter on Tuesday until three liours atter its usual time.
